fors glimpse of President Cleveland when
he should emerge fer drive TO the inter
nstionsl military encampmenE. Half
dozen mounted police had no little trouble
in clearing passage for the Presidents
carriage which was drawn by four spank
ing bays. The sky was lowering and
every one was predicting that rain would
fell before the President could
made start. Not drop
fell, however, and st 8:45 Mr.. Cleve-
land, looking but little worse for his
Wholesale handshsking of the previous
day, appeared at the arGhed doorway with
his hat dotted and many good natured
bow to the cheering crowd. He lightly
sprang into the waiting carriage, and in
triCe was whirling through the thick of
the business district and out Washington
boulevard to the encampment. He was
accompanied by Mayor Roche, General
Terry and dozen lesser dignitaries.
Early IS it was and threatening as was
the day, the sidewalks along the entire
route were

prevailing. a ludiCrous incident occurred
at the entrance to the encampmept
grounds. The Presidents carriage got
stuck in the mud. There was not a mo-

bays were smaftIy dashed. It WAS nip
and tuck with the mud that WAS made

Finally the vehicle containing the chief
magistrate gave terrific lunge forward,
and Was gone from the cheering crowd. A

THE DAY PROPITIoUs.
MILWAUKEE, WIS, Oct. Cup to to-
day Milwaukee had been only once
hOn0rsd by the presence as her guest Of
President Of the Uu.ted States. Nine
years ago President Hayes was accorded
al enthusiastic reception and was the
lion Of dsy that has since been mentally
recorded in the city &nuais with red
letters. General Grant visited Milwaukee
after MS term Of Office as President mad
expired, but received SO much en-
thusi2sGIc attention as though he were
Still cGief magistrate Of the nsliOn. To-
day Milwaukee, is glowing with patriot
ism over Its second opportunity to show
honor to the chosen ruler of the people.
Smiles are more gene raj than fr1Wns and

after rather unpromjsilg night during
which the

vivid flashes CT lightning and the

The decorations that were yesterday phi
in place suffered somewhat from the
water, but the blending effect Of the rain
in some instances enhanced the beauty
of the designs. 4 large concourse OF
people assembled st the Northwestern
depot OF the Lake Shore long before the
| time set for the arrival OF the Presidents
train, and between the surglng of the
crowd and the movement Of ths different
| organizations into their assigned posi-
lions il the line of parade, that section
of the city was afforded q spectacle
NEW IN IT'S HISTORY.
There was but moment to spare after
the arrival of the President at the station
in ChIcsgO from the military encampment
and the good-byes were hastily said SIS the
train pulled our for Milwaukee. Il had
rained during the night, and bit OF q

were still in the carriages, but before
leaving Chicago the clouds had broken
